New SDA Homes in Thornleigh, Sydney
Beautiful new homes. More choice in how you live.
A new Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) community is coming to Thornleigh on Sydney’s Upper North Shore, with six vacancies across four brand-new, purpose-built homes.
Expected to be ready to move into from November 2026, these thoughtfully designed SDA homes in Thornleigh will offer a choice of shared and individual living for people with Improved Liveability (IL) and High Physical Support (HPS) SDA funding.
Whether you would like to share your home with one other person or have a place entirely your own, there are different options to explore.
Choose the home that suits you
The Thornleigh development will include:
Two 2-bedroom homes
Enjoy your own bedroom and personal space while sharing your home with just one other person. Each home is designed for a maximum of two residents, creating a smaller and more personal shared living environment.
Two private 1-bedroom villas
Prefer a home of your own? These individual villas offer your own bedroom, living areas and private space, with no housemates.
Across the four homes, there will be six SDA vacancies available.
Purpose-built for accessible everyday living
These are beautiful new homes designed with accessibility, comfort and everyday life in mind.
Purpose-built to meet Improved Liveability and High Physical Support SDA design requirements, the homes will provide an accessible environment that can support different routines, preferences and support needs.
It is an opportunity to make a new home your own, in a space designed to support you to be involved in your life, make choices about how you live and receive the supports you need.
A great location on Sydney’s Upper North Shore
Located in Thornleigh, NSW, the homes offer the convenience of an established community while keeping everyday essentials within easy reach.
Residents will have access to local shops, healthcare, public transport, parks and recreational spaces, as well as the wider Hornsby and Upper North Shore community.
Supported Independent Living in Thornleigh
For people who require daily supports, Supported Independent Living (SIL) can be provided alongside SDA housing where it is included in your NDIS plan.
SDA and SIL are different NDIS supports. SDA funds the specialist housing, while SIL funds the supports you may receive in your home.
Our team can talk with you, your family or Support Coordinator about your individual circumstances, your NDIS funding and what your supports could look like in your new home.

Not sure if you’re eligible for Specialist Disability Accommodation?
Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is purpose-built housing for eligible NDIS participants with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs.
SDA funding is separate from the funding you receive for your everyday disability supports. The type of SDA funding included in your NDIS plan helps determine which SDA homes you can consider.
If you are unsure whether SDA is included in your plan, or you are beginning to explore SDA housing in Sydney, we can help you understand your options.
Our team can:
- Explain SDA and how it works with the NDIS
- Help you understand different SDA housing options
- Talk through Improved Liveability and High Physical Support housing
- Explore whether one of our Thornleigh homes could suit your needs and preferences
- Work with you, your family and Support Coordinator as you explore your next home
